  • What a fantastic spot! The cottage is great, beds are super comfy, but the best part for me was the lake. Warm, clean and so much fun. We loved all the lake supplies you offer (kayak, canoes, etc.) and loved the tour of the lake with you. Thank you so much, you are such kind hosts. We had a blast and will definitely be back.

  • Relaxing!! :) Some top moments here at Lissa's Villa include...relaxing in these lovely blue Adirondack chairs...watching our kids enjoying fishing, swimming, kayaking, tubing right in front of us. What a view, and what a lovely way to spend some of our time here. Besides a comfortable and well stocked cottage, the kids enjoyed the movie selections and well as the library :) We enjoyed (at Pete's recommendation) the fish fry at the Hungry Moose (fantastic)! We also thoroughly enjoyed a boat ride on Lake Kashwakamak - including some rock jumping. Having access to the canoes and kayaks has been a lot of fun. Neat to see our kids enjoying the water, as well as ourselves in this way. All in all, a really great week! Seth- I had a fun time here. I caught 8 fish, we had a great boat ride. we saw lots of cool stuff. The water was warm so we did a lot of kayaking, canoeing and swimming. We liked the movies and all the games. It was great. Kaylee- I had a very fun time here. I catched 9 fish. I enjoyed going to the jumping rock. It was very nice to go on a tour of the lake. It was nice to go swimming and in the morning on the chairs and seeing a view of the lake, its beautiful. It was fun to jump off the floating dock. It was nice to go tubing. Braden - I had a great week. We did lots of fun stuff. We kayaked, pedalboated and went swimming. I liked that the lake was right in front of the cottage. It was awesome that there were books to read when I finished all of my own books. I also enjoyed having movies to watch. Having all of the kayaks and other boats right there was nice because we didn't have to sign them out, or pay to use them. The fire pit was nice. The bed was very nice to sleep on and the new comforters were great. All in all I had a great time. Thanks

  • The Dude's Den was awesome. A great get away! It's appealing, clean and accommodating. Diana and I enjoyed the opportunity to spend some quality time with our daughter and grand daughters. The kayaks, canoe, paddle boat, swimming, horse shoe pits and fire pit were all part of a great holiday. The tour on the pontoon boat was much appreciated. Also the cottage served as a great base from which to enjoy/explore some of the surrounding area such as Mazinaw Rock and hiking in Bon Echo, etc. Holly claimed the top bunk as her private area. Thanks for everything! Looking forward to Sept 2018 in Casa Lina.
